Also, is this already covered sufficiently in the conformance suite? What are the relevant tests that we have?

Addressed the requested changes:

added a dedicated “Type parameter ordering” section header
reordered the section so the Python 3.12 generic class syntax appears first
updated “both examples” to “all of the examples above”

There is already conformance coverage for Protocol[...] ordering in conformance/tests/protocols_generic.py. In particular, the Proto1(Iterable[T_co], Protocol[S, T_co]) example together with the specialization checks verifies that type parameter ordering follows the Protocol[...] subscript order.

This PR expands the spec wording to make the broader ordering rules explicit, including Generic[...], parameterized Protocol[...], bare Protocol, and PEP 695 syntax.
